communism and capitalism

am the hipster
dwelling in the dumpster
and no i don't miss myself
when it's lost in the sea of trash

trailor white molding
on tv sets jerry ricki jenny
oh my

i miss those in impoverished little countries
dreaming of doritos and mcdonalds while we escape
for bigger luxeries to aspen & mammoth &
newport & huntington
i miss them i miss you it miss it all

i miss the mall

emaciated faces & the luxury of smack crack
pop music drinks bubble cherry utopia gone away
with mary

pop pins
the virgin
practically perfect in every way

looking for indentations in your hands
or your skull your footprints show Nike
your words show what you know

nothing but blindness

faith
market capacity
piglet-toting
security-blanket-wearing
old maids cashing in welfare
horny old men gathered in churches
repressing themselves
waiting for the last of our days

there is one thing that separates us
and it's not that in god i don't trust
but neither the crisp green leaves proclaiming
his name & co-opting us is your claim to fame
& i don't buy it
my credit card is pure
the virgin mary ain't your whore anymore
and we don't buy you at this store

market
market to market
i'm not a fat pig

i wanted to thank you for dying
but you never did

you were ringo you were paul
debbie gibson you were them all
you were at the black sabbath
and hot topic at the mall
you were the angel ready to fall

and i wanted to thank you for sticking
that cash up your ass
but it was a lollypop and you never did
no you never did & and you never even
would dream of it

thank the angels for not singing today
thank the devils for the duality they play
thank the demi-gods and the madison ave. frauds
thank mtv for wanting me
but i don't want my mtv

my demographic is sick
today of bullshit and bullshit
recycled bullshit replaced bullshit
human waste & the collective ugly face
we give back our slice we never ripped
in the first place

essentially
it's the baby out the window
with originality
tangentally
it's selling your sons
to homosexuality
beastiality yes sodomy
adultery adultery adultery
adultery

i'm no female marilyn manson
i'm no spice girl and i ain't from iowa
Market TV never cums on my boob
you're not my pimp & i'm no whore
at least not to you

in the war of good against evil
i'm through

i want an alternate way of understanding
and i'm not talking alternative music
or The Craft
no nothing like that
something more drastic
something like the downfall of your f*cking
civilization

there is one thing that separates us
and it's the phoney line you've drawn

between me & you between good & evil
between god & man between man & animal
between heaven & hell between black & white
between night & day between land & space

on the merry-go-round i go round & round
between days & nights & days &
earth in space & seasons & . . .
trends?

Goodbye GAP
Goodbye Abercrombie & Manson & Hanson
& Tori & Courtney & Sarah & Lilith &
Jerry & Friends & Clueless & Buffy &
R.E.M. & Nine inch Nails
& Garbage Pale kids
& Cabbage Patch kids
& Garfield & Carebears & gimmicks galore
Goodbye virgins & whores
Goodbye MTV
Goodbye Christianity
Gooodbye Judaism
Goodbye Islam
Goodbye Capitalism & Patriarchy

I am he moralistic one
I am the Genius
I am the beauty queen
I am the lesbian
& you'll never see my ass
on tv ill never sell out
no, you'll never my ass
on tv.
